I've been carrying this around for days...From the Wall Street Journal 3.9.08: "More and more people are working part-time jobs for economic reasons, rather than by choice. That figure rose by 100,000 in February for the second month in a row... bringing it to 4.79 million, compared to 4.13 million a year ago, and the highest since 1993."

1993!

Continuing..."More people also are holding multiple part-time jobs out of economic need. In 2007, an average of 1.8 million people held two jobs for that reason, the highest since the government began regularly tracking the statistic in 1994."

1994!
